Mark and Julian’s relationship makes me so insane the first time I read the books I don’t remember feeling that way about it? I think I payed most attention to Ty&Livvy + Ty&Jules + Livvy&Jules out of the dynamics so those stuck out most in my memory there are also shifts in what’s focused on most in LM vs Qoaad so that’s part of it but like… Mark and Julian is so funny and compelling to me because they do not understand each other at all! No scene encompasses how much Mark does not get Julian like the scene post whipping where Jules goes on that speal about how he wouldn’t want to live if Emma died and knows it’s not healthy but he might do what Malcolm did for Annabel if she did did and Mark is like “no my baby brother you are too good a person you would never ever do something like that ik you don’t mean any of it” had me in stitches ajdjdj as a reader who’s been in Jules’ head and knows that yes, he absolutely did mean all of that (codependent king love him for that <3). And then in LoS there’s a scene where Mark is tasked with watching the kids and minor things go wrong (well I mean someone does get injured. But for Shadowhunters that is still p minor) so he’s like “oh my god Julian would Never have let things go wrong like this he would know exactly what to do” bestie no… he wouldn’t have known better he would have just faked it till he made it and never let anyone know he was struggling to begin with lolz. That’s not even getting into the Emma thing which is just a whole cycle of them projecting their own feelings onto the other person Mark assuming Julian loves her platonically because he does and Julian assuming Mark’s would be in love with her because that’s normal existence to him usually I don’t care for set ups like that but this one is fun somehow.. and that scene after Emma and Jules argued and then fucked in that cottage so Jules comes back in a good mood and notices that Mark is constantly on edge around him because he’s accidentally been so snippy/cunty to him since the fake dating started and he’s like “oh have I been that bad?” And then tells Mark he’ll be cool now because he knows they weren’t really together Andjjd. also they’re both sooo bad at being teenage boys in completely different ways so the juxtaposition of their traumas is fun “I don’t understand how to be a teenage boy because I’ve been raised to be a “feral” (only using the word because they use it to describe Mark so many times in the books) creature and feel trapped by being among humans” vs “I don’t understand how to deal with teenage boy emotions or think through that aspect of life so I repress all of them while clinging to my responsible adult mask + using my political strategist wiles to get through life”. Idk why but I just really like their whole thing…

Star filled nights - A Kitty fic
—————————————————————————
After having kissed the man who he had been pining over for the last five years, Kit sprinted away violently. At least this time he hadn’t escaped to the other side of the globe.
Yet he kept his word and of course later made his entrance into the grand hall of the french manor, dressed clad in the masquerade attire.
Catching a glimpse of himself in the hall mirror as he strode in, Kit checked himself out, his pressed gold and ocean suit patterned with swans floating around in a hue of waves. With a matching masquerade over his light eyes.
As his father had taught him to do well finding someone in a crowd, he stayed as far away from people has possibly without looking suspicious, so as a young woman carrying a circle tray filled with bubbling champagne passed by he grabbed one.
Then filtered his way to the stairs of the overlooking balcony to watch the titled ball room below, where danced many, fae with long draping gowns swirling around them as their partners spun them, vampires with sharpened fangs playfully snapping at the werewolves on the other side of the room.
One suit stood out to Kit, the one he had help picked out, crimson and ebony details weaved through the crowd, slowly Kit made his way down the stairs. Watching as the suit made its way towards the longer table filled with treats, before he could cross the floor, a hand clapped onto his back.
“Rook! What are you doing here?!” A voice asked, Kit turned around to see one of his life long complains, Lyall wearing an ivory suit with a polar bear mask.
From behind him a matching brown bear stuck to the other side of him.
“Kit! How are you, man!” Steven called, brining Kit into a tight but quick hug.
“I’m good, guys. A bit busy-“
“So you taking over your dad business is what I’ve been hearing?” Lyall asked, wrapping his arm around him and brining him out towards the main hall of the building.
“No- no I’m done with that.” Kit stated, as they brought him into a darkened room, covered him soft velvet curtains, a metal pole in the middle, lamp lights illuminated the curved body of the woman wearing a raven mask, lace covering slight parts of her.
“Have a seat.” Steven told, stretching his hand out towards the love seat facing a silk mat with various pillows in the other side of the room.
“So, what have you been up to lately? We haven’t seen you in forever.” Lyall asked, sitting down beside him, as a few of the girls on the other side watched intently.
“Uh- good.” Kit replied, as Steven’s arm came down beside him and placed a drink into his hand.
“Like what you see?” The girl asked, as Kit kept his eyes glued to her, she swung one of her long legs in a semicircle.
“Uh- maybe.” Kit stalled slowly as Steven sat down beside him with a matching drink.
“So, what brings you here tonight?” Lyall asked, as if on cue the door the room opened and in came a crimson lion lace mask, the one he had picked out mere hours ago.
“Hello? Rook you there?” Steven asked, tapping his shoulder lightly.
“Yeah, yeah, just having some fun.” Kit replied casually, taking a sip from his glass.
“That’s what I like to hear!” Lyall exclaimed, Kit watched as Ty sat down next to someone he apparently knew, followed by an olive skinned fox in a three piece suit and leather boats.
“We should go do those shots with Eiron later, said he had some faerie kush or something! Might want to get to that before he meets some vamp girl.” Steven whispered, from the other side of the room, Ty bend his head down as the girl next to him said something.
“Hey, baby we’re bouncing.” Lyall called out to the woman wrapping herself around, she waved with one of her hands.
As all three of them walked out, Kit glared back at Ty, eyes wider than the moon in the sky.
As they approached the seating area near the balcony, Lyall and Steven both sat down as Kit stood up, as Elion saw him, dressed as an elephant, he jumped up and hugged him.
“Kit! I haven’t seen you in so long!” He rushed, making sure not to burn him with the cigarette he had lit in his right hand.
“Hey, what’s up?” Kit asked, sitting down beside him on the flannel couch.
“ Same old, I can finally work now! Me and my Dad got this stall set up and we sell-“
What stopped him from going on was a collection of much more expensive looking suits, from the end of the couch, Steven shifted in his seat to conceal his waistband, which held a gun with a hidden flashlight attachment.
“Howdy officers.” Steven started.
“Shut up Steven.” Lyall ordered, waving them both along, once again, Kit was enchanted by a pair of stony eyes, awesome cheekbones and slightly smug expression.
“Run along now, I know I have my rights.” Eiron declared, from the arm rest a fellow fae know as Odhran laughed, dressed a an English bulldog.
Both of the men walked away, going towards the out stretching balcony lit by the flame of the stars.
“I’ll-“ Kit started, standing for a moment only to be pulled back down by Lyall.
“Don’t go picking sides now, Rook.”He dropped a tone, placing his hand on his hip to reveal a glock.
“Wouldn’t dream of it.” Kit stated, even if he had his own gun concealed by the huge tail on his waist, he knew that Lyall would be almost a hundreds percent more likely to use it.
So this is how Kit found himself still on the couch thirty minutes later, many shots with Lyall and Steven, a joint slips with Eiron and a dance with Odhran which Eiron tried to help from afar but was covered but the sound of Lyall and Steven laughing.
Finally, he was out on the balcony sharing a seelie cigar with Eiron.
“ I can’t believe you actually said that to him.”
He giggled, Kit tuned out the rest of what he was saying as he spotted Ty, whispering again to the fox.
Upon finally having chance to speak to him, Kit began to approach.
“Oh- ok then.” Eiron stoped, moving alongside his companion.
“Hey, Ty.” Kit greeted, as Eiron eyed down the two, spending a bit more time admiring the detail in the foxes suit.
“I am Eiron, pleasure to make your acquaintance.” He greeted, holding out his hand for the fox suit to hold, put he only shook it lightly.
He was really intended that he kiss it, and he had just embarseed him self, but neither Kit or Ty paid mind to them.
“ I’m really sorry if I made things weird between us or if I confused you in some way, I didn’t mean to, and if you don’t like boys or you don’t like me-“
He was cut off by a pair of soft lips meeting his own, gently Ty wrapped his arm around Kits neck, as his hands made their way into his scalp, fingers touching each strand.
“Care to dance?” Eiron asked, interlacing his hand with the other man’s before he got an answer.
When Kit and Ty finally got off of each other, Ty leaned on the edge of the balcony.
“So, did you find out anything on our missing werewolf?” Ty asked, looking into his glowing eyes.
“He’s Steven’s stepmothers brother. From what I hear he has been missing almost three months. Before he died some vampires saw him leaving the bar with an unseelie fae, no one believed them.” Kit whispered.
“ You smell like cinnamon.” Ty commented.
“ yeah that’s the weed.” Kit replied causally.
“What!?” Ty asked, a bit shocked but not totally surprised.
“I love you?”Kit wondered.
“You’re so confusing.” Ty stopped.
“ I get that a lot.” Kit muttered.
“Will you still help me?” Ty whispered
“Of course I will. I’d help you if it was the last thing I do. I’d let a zombie eat my brains for you but you have to promise you’ll shoot me before I start eating other people. Maybe cry on my grave.” Kit stated jokingly.
“I can do that.” Ty replied seriously.
“Good we’re all set.” Kit added.
“Not so fast. One of you, not going to say which one, is meant to be in rehab. In London.” An older voice called out from the French glass doors.
“You’ve been in rehab?”Ty questioned,Kit slowly turned around and faced his new current enemies, a calico cat and a grey gemstone city rat.
“ It’s a long story.” Kit tried to explain but it he grown too tired of the same fake excuses.
“Come on man, busting out of rehab is just lame. What do you have to do all day? Colour?” An angry tone voiced, coming beside Simon dressed as a zebra, smoking a lit Paul mall.
“Oh really your gonna talk Jacob?” Kit sassed.
“YES I AM!” Jacob shouted loudly.
“Come on, Kit. Party’s almost over anyways, the dogs gone missing.” Magnus called, holding out his arm for Kit to link with as Simon waved Ty to follow and Jacob gave the rest of the cigarette to a known vampire friend of his.
“Why is it always the animals?” Kit asked, most times if a party wrapped up steadily, something had gone missing and no one wanted to take the blame for it.
“Why wouldn’t you tell me this when I asked you to help me, Kit? Do you understand the position I’m in now?” Ty somewhat shouted as they got onto the sidewalk on the other side of the mansion.
“69?” Kit asked.
“Are you fucking kidding me!? Do you really think that’s funny?!” Ty exclaimed as Simon came to stand in front of him and Jacob rushed to avoid the leaving cars.
“I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want you to know!” Kit screamed, as Magnus sighed and sat down on the grass of a nearby lawn.
“You should have fucking told me! Do you know what Jem and Tessa are going to think of me now?!” Ty screamed back, causing Jacob to try and get Kit as far away as possible.
“I don’t give a fuck what they think! They aren’t my fucking family and you know that as well as I do!” Kit kept barking, pushing Jacob off of him as he tried to lean him to walk.
“Yes they are! They take of you, they feed you, you have a room in their house!” Ty argued, as a the ground beneath a nearby car began to shake.
“I’ve never had any fucking family! My mother packed up and left and don’t you tell me it was for the better because I will forgive her for leaving me in that house with my dad! The only thing I’ve ever come close to is living with the Armas and that was because my fucking father was in jail!” Kit screamed, as the ground began to open under the car, causing Magnus to jump up and run towards the road.
The rat grabbed Ty and dragged him towards the road as well, followed by Jacob who pushed Kit, as the split widened enough for a few people to stop and come up to the scene as the car was swallowed.
“What’s going on?!” A gentle voice came, rushing towards Kit and placing her warmed hands onto his cheeks, from his confused state Kit locked into a pair of ebony eyes, covered by a soft gray mask painted and gemmed as an elephant.
The hole didn’t stop as Kit began to calm down, realizing the destruction was at his own hands.
From the movement of the surrounding area, a gray hound arose from the shadows, trying to jump around the hole but only gave out a final bark as the hole swallowed with Kits calm.
“I found the dog.” Jacob commented as Kits eyes swelled with sudden tears, Thea wrapped her matching silk scarf around both of them.
“Oh fuck we have to go! I was paid 50 fucking bucks to find that dog!” Basil yelled as both he and Kit began to sprint as a booming voice began to scream out.
The rest of the group quickly followed behind them, indulging now Anuish and Eiron who had come sometime around when the fight on the sidewalk began.
They all stopped as Kit plopped down on a street sign enough blocks away that they were sure the warlock would not run after them.
“ I killed that dog.” Kit sobbed, as Thea rubbed his back gently.
“I know this isn’t a good time but we really have to get you back to Jem and Tessa’s.” Magnus declared.
“It was just a dog.” Jacob commented, from behind Kit, Basil shook his gingerbread head.
“Where’s that shadowhunter?” Eiron asked, as both Ty and Anuish had disappeared during the run.
“I told them to leave.” Simon stated.
“WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?!” Kit sobbed.
“Kind of my job,now but whatever.” Simon says.
“You’re clearly in no state to talk to him, Kit.” Jacob deadpanned.
“We both know we can’t send him back to that house.” Thea added towards Magnus.
“What we need to do is take this one step at a-“
“He killed a fucking dog! Without even looking at it, if that is not cause to be send to leave with other fea I do not know what is!” Eiron shouted, although he had unfortunately seen much worse in his many years, the thought of what he now knew disturbed him.
“Stand up.” Magnus ordered, pulling onto Lits sleeve.
“Where are we going?” Kit asked, wiping the stray tears from his face.
“London. Right now.” Magnus stated, opening a set portal for them to use on their journey.

What if Kit cannot look directly at Tessa’s eyes because they are the exact same shade as Ty’s?

I've yet to meet a sane KitTy Stan and I love that for us 💞
i’m actually convinced that atp every single kitty stan has actually lost their minds. like we’re all so fucking unhinged about a ship that isn't even canon yet and that doesn’t even have their own series. and can u imagine how much worse it will get after the twp come out???? oh yeah we're royally fucked, folks :')

my criteria for this was the canon ones + any ships I have any awareness of being shipped or having been shipped at any point, and based on book content (although an shtv femslash poll could be an interesting comparison point so perhaps I’ll make that later)

Some kinda crazy publishing news for Cassie Clare fans??
Tumblr media
"Melanie Nolan at Knopf has acquired Cassandra Clare's The Wicked Powers trilogy, the final installment of Clare's 23-book YA fantasy series, The Shadowhunter Chronicle[s], which follows Kit Herondale, Ty Blackthorn, and Drusilla Blackthorn from The Dark Artifices series as they are drawn into the final conflict between the demons;"
[source: Publisher's Weekly Children's Bookshelf]
Did you catch the crazy part? For the past seventeen (17) years, TSC has been published under McElderry Books, an imprint of Simon & Schuster. And now, the final trilogy, which, as you may remember, we have been waiting years for it to be picked up, is going to be published by Knopf, an imprint of Random House (the same house that published Sword Catcher btw).
What does this mean? A different editorial team. A different marketing team. A different design team. Etc. etc. etc. Its honestly the last of these that scares me the most, but I feel like with such an established series as TSC, they would be dumb not to finish it out with the same font and cover styles etc. that have been characteristic of it for years.
What caused the switch? Great question. We can speculate all we want, but all I know is it just makes me that much more intrigued to find out what The Wicked Powers has in store.

Rank the VegasPete kisses 😈
suz i stg this ask is gonna get me super mega cancelled. when you find my mangled body in a decrepit alleyway tell my family i loved them
-
6. i love you, pete.
Tumblr media
listen, no okay, LISTEN, put down your pitchforks, this is an s-tier kiss okay, i know!!!!! I KNOW BUT EVERY VEGASPETE KISS IS INSANE!!!! SOMETHING HAS TO BE AT THE BOTTOM
i did and still do think it's a lil cray cray of vegas to say he's in love with pete like ten days after dicking him down, but the blood-streaked mouths and vegas's devastated face as he pushes pete away afterwards sure do make up for it
5. you must suffer until i'm satisfied
Tumblr media
the thing that gets me about this one is the total lack of artifice on vegas's part. despite every touch of his before this having been part of a long, cruel, twisted performance, this one is so gentle. so unassuming. a gift, more than anything else.
the conversation after is critical to their relationship, and i'm not sure pete would have wanted to open himself up like that without this kiss as proof of vegas's... sincerity? vegas isn't playing a game anymore — and pete can finally stop playing too.
4. psycho
Tumblr media
head in hands!!! i can't believe this isn't in the top 3 someone send me to jail rn
i don't need to talk about this yall Know. third eye opened brain chemistry rewired brainrot permanently acquired "you like me like this" "i know exactly what i want" the way their hands paw at each other the way vegas smiles the way pete's KNEES GO WEAK I'M FOREVER SCREAMING
3. you're the most important person in my life
Tumblr media
ugly sobbing in the gutter they trust each other they cherish each other they're going to work so hard to stay together they're coming together as EQUALS in the LIGHT AFTER THE STORM I'M—
it's the way they cradle each other's faces in their hands, okay. it's the unbearable tenderness, and it's the promises they're making to each other!!! that shit just gets me real bad 😭
2. (we only kiss people we like)
Tumblr media
their entire sex scene is characterized by an unexpected, intense tenderness, and this last kiss is really the nail in the coffin for me. the way pete is leaning up into this, chasing vegas's mouth — the way vegas is so unbelievably soft as he presses himself into pete — the space they've carved out together in the darkness for this moment of startling intimacy — something has changed here, in both of them. and it's going to be their undoing.
1. i need you, pete.
Tumblr media
I DON'T CARE IF YOU DISAGREE WITH ME I WILL DIE ON MY LITTLE HILL THIS IS THE BEST KISS IN THE ENTIRE SHOW. SCREENSHOTS DO NOT DO IT JUSTICE. vegas is TREMBLING into this kiss he is TERRIFIED he's made an awful awful mistake and he's about to lose the best thing he's ever had he is CLINGING TO PETE trying to press all of his monstrous love into pete's skin i'm so sorry i didn't mean it i need you i will worship you look at how gentle i can be with you? look at how desperately i want to cherish you please please pete don't leave me MY GOD I AM CHEWING ON THE WALLS IT HURTS SO GOOD
and pete is so vulnerable to this kind of touch. he's shaking too, he's gasping and sobbing and almost can't believe what he's about to do in return. pete intends for this to be their last kiss — and vegas has no idea.
